TAMPA, Fla. (AP) -- Tampa Bay Buccaneers safety Dwight Smith was arrested early Tuesday and charged with a pulling a pellet gun on two fans who approached his car while he waited in line at a McDonald's window.

Smith, a star in the Super Bowl two years ago, was inside his car with a friend at 4 a.m. when a woman in the car ahead of them recognized the player, the Hillsborough County sheriff's office said.

Two men in the car, Trevor Boyce Jr., 19, and Javier Joseph Jr., 22, walked to Smith's car and tried to talk to him, officials added. Smith became annoyed and drew the pellet gun but did not shoot it, officials said. David Roston, Smith's 26-year-old friend, got out of the car and punched Boyce, officials said.

Boyce and Joseph got back in their car and called 911. Deputies arrived and arrested Smith, charging him with aggravated assault with a weapon. Roston was charged with battery. Bail and attorney information was not immediately available.

The Buccaneers and Smith's agent, [b]Drew Rosenhaus[/b], did not immediately return calls.

Smith pleaded guilty in 2003 to pulling a gun on a motorist. He was fined $225, put on a year's probation, ordered to take anger management classes and complete 25 hours of community service.

Smith returned two interceptions for touchdowns in the Bucs' 2003 Super Bowl win over Oakland. The 26-year-old safety is a four-year veteran who had three interceptions and 83 tackles last season, playing all 16 games.

Smith is a free agent, that can't help him out with future employers. Maybe he could go to Oakland, they're home for misfit players in the NFL.

"I'll aim for your eye, man.  I'm serious.  Do you want to be half blind?!?"

Dwight thought he was Ralphie from the movie "Christmas Story". :lol:

He's got his Red Ranger pellet gun and he's was ready to do some damage. [img]http://forum.go-bengals.com/public/style_emoticons//24.gif[/img]
